Desperate Measures NZ- new single and tour dates!

lets get Skindred to Number One!

lets get Skindred to Number One!

Our mates Skindred are good blokes and are are currently sat at number 1 in the UK National album charts in the mid week on independent record label Earache Records but are up against some tough opposition with the Major Label pop artists .

The rock , punk and metal community are rallying behind them in order to help keep them in the top spot.

So show them some love and either pick up a copy of their new album or stream it and lets help put an alternative ragga, punk metal band to number 1 in the uk charts and shake things up a bit.
